During the FAM Trip, our base resort was Secrets Maroma Beach, which was the perfect place to start! Every room has a Jacuzzi, balcony, king bed, plasma TV and full 24 hour room service. The biggest benefit of Secrets Maroma Beach is the BEACH. It has the best beach of any of the resorts we visited, hands down. Wide and long beach with white sand and clear blue water.
Food at all AM Resorts is top notch! Below is a quick run down of each of the other resorts and some quick ratings from me.
ALL of these hotels have a world class spa so I'll keep that out of each description. There is nothing like the spas in Mexico!!!
Secrets Silversands is the coolest art deco Mexican themed hotel I've ever seen. Great pools, lively crowd and multiple choices for dining. If there is a downside it is the beach. It's the smallest and narrowest beach of all of the resorts we visited. The resort makes up for the lack of beach by having a pool for each building. If you can enjoy a little beach and a lot of pools, this is the best resort for the money! Awesome rooms with the full Jacuzzi, balcony, king bed, plasma, room service etc...
Secrets Capri is the most quaint and classic style of the Secrets chain. Quaint and intimate and every room includes preferred club amenities. Great beach, great pool, EXCELLENT service but less activity going on at the resort. This is much better for the travelers seeking peace and quiet.
Dreams Riviera Cancun has the best lobby of all of the resorts. Stretching from the front of the resort all the way to the beach! Lively crowd, great for kids, great food options and a kids club. Rooms here are also nothing to scoff at!
Dreams Tulum is my favorite of the family resorts that we visited. MASSIVE property with both old and new architecture. It's very lush and tropical with an AMAZING beach that views the Mayan ruins of Tulum! WOW! They even have a classic Spanish Colonial Church here with the wooden pews, that was my favorite part of this property! Unreal!
Dreams Puerto Aventuras is right in town. Lots to do including a dolphin park and shops. This resort has an adults only section and the kids side. Great beach, MASSIVE round shaped rooms and all the food you care to eat. For the price a real winner!
Now Jade resort is also a great little budget family property. More of a larger hotel set up. Good Beach, Good Food, Good Service. I would say this is a very good 3 star resort.
Now Sapphire resort is a bungalow style, laid back "Hawaiiain-ish" resort. They are renovating 100 of their rooms by the end of the year so those will be great. As of right now their only main problem is how hard the beds are! Once they update all of the rooms it won't be a problem.
All in all it was the best Fam I've ever been privy too. Great spas, great everything. I definitely give the trip two thumbs up!

While all of the resorts are nice, the Secrets Silversands really stands out in style, service and low costs.
